Benzostat™

Inolex

Benzostat™ is a paraben-free preservative blend that can be used to provide cost effective, broad spectrum coverage. It can be used as an alternative to traditional preservative blends that are seen as undesirable consumers. Benzostat™ is effective over a broad pH range from pH 4 - 8 with a typical use level of 1.0 - 1.5% (w/w). Benzostat™ may be used in emulsion, anhydrous, and surfactant systems. These include creams, lotions, shower gels and color cosmetics. It may be added to the water phase, at ambient or hot temperatures, or may be added post-emulsification of O/W emulsions.
